Humanities Arts Cultural Stu 0318 - Div II & III Project Seminar in dance, performance, and embodied practices

This course is for Div II and III students who are engaged in significant creative projects in dance, performance, or other embodied/interdisciplinary practices. Students should enter with a project in mind or underway. We will meet weekly to discuss and share tools for multiple stages of the creative process: goal-setting, planning, research, development, revising, and production/presentation. Students will share elements of works-in-process at regular intervals, and they will activate co-working methods and other structures of support. Accompanying materials will bridge the project work with future career visioning and the development of artist mission statements. Guest visits will offer glimpses into creative fields beyond college. Previous enrollment in a dance, theatre, or related course with creative assignments or final projects is suggested. While some students will be working toward a specific concert, enrollment in this course does not guarantee a slot in dance program productions. Keywords:Dance, Performance, Theater, Production, Art

Students should expect to spend 6-8 hours weekly on work and preparation outside of class time
